I THINK maybe, just a little bit, my life is slowly getting a tad back to some sort of a small smidgin of normality. That could definitly be considered an overstatement, but at least I was able to do a little photo shoot with Ava yesterday. YAY! And I did have lunch with a couple friends a few days ago, so that was really great, however....The house is still a bomb and I still don't shower much and my kids generally watch movies, play video games and eat cereal and sandwiches. Thankfully I have a husband that cooks so we all get saved by him as far as our stomaches are concerned. All the while, I am bouncing and holding and feeding and more holding and walking and pacing and bouncing and holding. Ava likes to be held. Yes, one of those. Taylor did this to me too. She also likes to eat....a lot! Every 2 hours like clockwork (or sooner). Another footstep she is following of Taylor's. Gee, I wonder if she'll throw those oh so lovely tantrums like Taylor too! I DO hope she gets his long skinny legs! :) At this point, she is just totally chubbing out on us. In a month the girl put on 2 1/2 lbs.! At just 5 weeks, she weighed in at 11 lbs. and up in the 75% and 95% for her height and weight. Happy and healthy....what more could I ask for??? Well, okay, more sleep, a shower and some more hands free time, but that will come all too soon. For now.....just more of THIS:
The End!
ohhh- she is getting those little rolly-poley thighs... I just love 'em!!!! (of course this is the only time in a girls life that you can say that!) Do you just tie different bows into that hat? It is so cute...I love it!!
XOXOXO Ava!!!!

CUTE CUTE CUTE! Don't worry, I'm still not showering, and Amelie's 14 months old!
Oh, and babies are supposed to put on about 2 lbs a month for the first 6 months, so Ava's right on track :)... Amelie was a chubster too!
